OMIA:001055-9796 : Vitiligo in Equus caballus (horse)

In other species: chicken , Rhesus monkey , dog , domestic cat , Northern giraffe , taurine cattle , water buffalo

Categories: Integument (skin) phene

Links to possible relevant human trait(s) and/or gene(s) in OMIM: 193200 (trait) , 221350 (trait) , 270750 (trait) , 277465 (trait)

Mendelian trait/disorder: unknown

Disease-related: yes

Mapping: Druml et al. (2021) "performed a GWAS analysis using high-density 670 k single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) data from 152 Lipizzan and 104 Noriker horses, which were phenotyped for vitiligo-like depigmentation by visual inspection. ... We identified seven candidate genes on four chromosomes (ECA1, ECA13, ECA17, ECA20) putatively involved in vitiligo pathogenesis in grey horses."
